Team Questionnaire July 2021

a) What are the differences and similarities between humanitarian data ecosystems across divergent contexts?

b) In what ways do methods of data collection vary in the production of databases, and what are the merits and limitations of differing approaches in terms of inclusiveness and representation of vulnerable populations across different contexts?

c) How far and in what ways are different vulnerability or at-risk criteria understood and addressed by divergent datasets in each context?

d) How are operational functions impacted by differing data collection methods, and with what contextually-specific effects?

Other

a) To what degree are dataset indicators and practices of assistance consistent with each other, and are situations of inconsistency characterised by any recurring patterns?

b) Which groups of beneficiaries and categories of vulnerability or risk are included in practices of data-based targeting, and which are excluded?

c) How far are inconsistencies and exclusions clustered in coordinating and operational functions, and with what implications for the provision of assistance on the ground?

d) In what ways, if at all, would a data minimisation approach be helpful in the field of humanitarianism and the data-driven targeting of protection?

Other

a) How are access issues managed in conflict situations, and what are the implications for the quality of data of limited access to vulnerable populations?

b) What accountability promises and concerns arise in the collation and use of large-scale quantitative and visual data, and how does this impact on the provision of protection in practice?

c) How is the balance struck between data saturation and proportionality in the formation of humanitarian datasets?

d) In what ways do operational challenges impact on groups particularly vulnerable or at-risk in conflict situations?

Other

a) In what ways does data-based assistance impact on humanitarianism as a field of action, and how do donors and practitioners on the ground navigate these changes?

b) What benefits and risks does the drive for data-based humanitarian assistance pose for vulnerable populations, including those who benefit from and those who fall through the cracks of protection?

c) How do local stakeholders and beneficiaries (or potential beneficiaries) of assistance respond to the data-based targeting of humanitarian aid, and what controversies arise in the development of such tools?

d) How have ethical concerns that emerge in the production of datasets with vulnerable populations been identified, and how successfully have these been mitigated in different contexts?
